Abstract
This chapter deals with macro-economic performance and macroeconomic policy in Austria in 1973–1985. In this period the world economy was hit by the two oil price surges with devastating effects on output, employment and inflation. The Austrian economy, of course, was no exception. But it proved to be somewhat more shock resistant than the average of the industrialised countries.
